Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 209 St. Linhe River
Liu Song's army, which had been stationed in Luoyang, finally started to move. Cars of food and a group of soldiers began to move closer to the east of the river, preparing for the battle of east of the river.

At this time, Liu Yu was still sitting in the palace for the final deduction.

Luoyang has a long history. Since ancient times, it was chosen as the hinterland by the ancestors of the Xia Dynasty and the palace city was established. Now it is an ancient city with a history of thousands of years.

It's just that after the war, especially when Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luoyang had become a piece of white land.

The buildings in Luoyang today are basically built during the period of Cao Cao and Cao Pi, and it has been nearly 200 years since Liu Yu settled in Luoyang.

Later, it became the capital of the Cao Wei Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty, so it was naturally renovated with huge manpower and material resources.

Luoyang Imperial Palace City is located at the northern end of the central axis of the city, "centered to build poles", and the built Taiji Hall is the first palace city main hall that "builds a center and stands upright" in China, creating a precedent for palace layout.

The Taiji Hall is located on a tall two-story platform, twelve rooms wide, with two steps on the left and right on the front.There are four gold and copper pillars in the hall to support a huge dome. Inside, lacquered tiles and golden steps, silver couplets and golden pillars, bead curtains and jade walls, are extremely ingenious.The window is tactful, the painting is cloudy, and the mat is woven with five colors, hanging larger than the beams and pillars, and the jade is tied to the ribbon.

In terms of majesty and solemnity, the Luoyang Imperial Palace seems to be a bit more magnificent than the Jiankang Imperial Palace.

At this time, Liu Yuduan sat on the dragon chair above the Taiji Hall, and the left and right courtiers sat in attendance.

In the middle of them is a huge map of the north.

"The eldest son of Shangdang County is an important hub between Hedong and Hebei. If there is no blockage here, Tuoba Si can transfer troops from Hebei at any time."

Zhu Lingshi in Hedong has already noticed the movement of the Wei army in the Northeast of Hedong.

After Tuoba Si led his troops to Jinyang, Changsun Biao led more than 1 people to the east, obviously to support Hebei.

After Liu Yu scanned the map, he finally turned his attention to Hedong County.

Thanks to Hebei being disrupted by Fu Hongzhi's cavalry, Tuoba Si was forced to choose Hedong as the main battlefield.

"Tuoba Si, do you want to defend? Or attack?"

Liu Yu, Xie Hui and other staff members came to a conclusion after deducing the military actions that the Northern Wei Dynasty could take in Hedong.

"Seventy percent."

"This victory rate can reach [-]%!"

Although the battlefield is changing rapidly, the general deduction will undoubtedly allow the generals of both sides to have a deeper understanding.

"On paper" is not reliable, but "on paper" is indispensable.

Xie Hui is especially good at this kind of thing.

When Liu Yu attacked Houqin, nine of the ten strategies offered by Xie Hui were adopted and finally realized.

This is talent and ability.

Xie Hui made another deduction for this Battle of Hedong, and he also got an exciting result.

Liu Yu was not surprised by this result.

Now Liu Song's national power is far above the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Not to mention that the battlefield is in Hedong, even if it is placed in Hebei to increase the power of the cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the strongest, it may not be possible that the Northern Wei Dynasty will be able to win Liu Song.

At this time, it is still the strength to speak.

But can the results of this kind of deduction be used as a reference, just to enhance self-confidence.

The Battle of Guandu, the Battle of Chibi, and the Battle of Feishui.

Which of these three famous battles was not defeated by the opposing side when the strength gained the upper hand?
Of course, there is one essential difference between Liu Yu and Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Fu Jian——

from the microscopic.

Even Cao Cao, whose family background is the worst among the three, his father, Cao Song, is a Taiwei, a serious Sangong.

But what does Liu Yu have?
A useless "descendant of Liu Jiao".

A pair of parents who died early.

The younger brother born to two stepmothers.

Even compared with Liu Bei who also weaves mats and sells shoes, Liu Yu can be regarded as a well-off family.

At least Liu Bei was able to worship the great scholar Lu Zhi as his teacher when he was young, and he was a classmate with Gongsun Zan.

Liu Yu was illiterate when he was 30 years old, so he had to join the Beifu Army in order to survive.

There are only two words for the core method of this kind of coming from the bottom - cautious.

If he was not careful, Liu Yu had long since died in which battle he died, and was hastily buried as an unknown corpse.

This youthful habit has long been engraved in Liu Yu's bones, so when he arranges the deployment, he also guards the back road first.

It is really difficult for Liu Yu to capsize in the Hedong gutter.

"Masters, are there any omissions to add?"

This is Liu Yu's other magic weapon besides "cautious".

Never superstitious with their own wisdom or force.

A good swimmer drowns, a good rider falls, and each takes what he likes and turns himself into a disaster.

Liu Yu does not blindly believe in his own judgment, he is more willing to listen to everyone's opinions, and then screen and implement them.

Many ministers looked around, but they didn't speak any more.

The same is true for Xie Hui.

Now the preparations have been able to do everything.

Re-arranging, on the contrary, is superfluous.

"In that case..."

In fact, Liu Yu also knows that he has done everything he should do now, and asking more questions is just to make sure nothing goes wrong.

Seeing that there was no response from the crowd, when Liu Yu just wanted everyone to disperse, a sudden pain like a knife surged from his heart.

In an instant, Liu Yu's complexion turned pale.

Fortunately, the emperor's dragon chair in the Tai Chi Hall is located at the top of the hall, and the other courtiers would not be able to notice Liu Yu's strangeness if they didn't look up.

Only Liu Yifu, who was closest to Liu Yu, noticed Liu Yu's distorted face due to pain.

Liu Yifu was startled, but his body covered Liu Yu without a trace.

"Everyone, go down and prepare well. I will leave for Hedong soon."

Everyone was a little surprised why Liu Yifu suddenly spoke up today, but Liu Yifu was originally the eldest son, and he stayed by Liu Yu's side to serve, so he could represent Liu Yu.

For a while, everyone left one after another, only Xie Hui looked up slightly.

Little did he know that this glance made Xie Hui feel like being struck by lightning, so he quickly bowed his head and left in a hurry.

After the ministers left, Liu Yifu quickly ordered people to close the gate of the palace and clear away the surrounding people, leaving only Liu Yilong and Liu Yikang in the palace.

"Father!"

After repaying everything, Liu Yifu turned around to check Liu Yu's situation.

At this time, Liu Yu's lips were slightly purple, and the severe pain made his forehead sweat.

"Chariot soldiers..."

"It was handled well."

Liu Yu grabbed Liu Yifu's hand, as if it would make him feel better.

"Father, I will let the third brother secretly invite the military doctor to come over!"

Seeing that Liu Yu had no objection, Liu Yilong left in a hurry.

"It's okay, it's an old problem."

Liu Yuqiang braced himself up, and slowly straightened up after the pain eased for a few minutes.

"I can still hold on for my father. This battle must be fought hard for my father."

"But……"

"No but!"

Liu Yu's eyes became firm at this moment.

"If I don't fight, my descendants will fight. My mission has not been completed, so I won't fall down like this."

After sitting on the dragon chair for a long time, Liu Yu felt his body loosen slightly.

At this time, the doctor Liu Yilong secretly found also helped Liu Yu start the treatment.

It was only then that he healed Liu Yu and didn't let anyone get close, including his son Liu Yifu and the others.

No one knew what Liu Yu's physical condition was like, only a few days later Liu Yu appeared in the army with a red face, leading the army westward, St. Linhe River!
